As the only white Cindy under 30, I’ve unfortunately run into too many white Cindys OVER 30 who were like this. Maybe I should start going by Popsicle, or AbolishICE, or Moon Unit or something.

The guy on the left is a near-dead ringer for Alexander Siddig! I had to Google to see if they’re related. Seems like no.

I had a shoulder injury about two years ago, and in the process of getting treated both shoulders kinda just...quit. They’re better now, with a lot of physical therapy; apparently, I have special shoulders that make stress or injury much, much more likely, and much more painful.

I’m coming in hot with a book rec for all of you horny for that gothic shit: Every Heart a Doorway and Down Among the Sticks and Bones by Seanan McGuire are both fantasy novels—specifically about children that have been swept off to fantasy worlds, and returned, and now have to live in a real world where they no…

My head hurt from their logic, until I remembered that Fox News will take any excuse to chastise a woman. Now I’m just angry.

I genuinely love Barbie—I think she’s a ridiculous fashion plate and a fascinating reflection of what’s both “cool” and as noncontroversial as possible in a given time period.
